“Unbeatable, and I’ve tried a few. Like having a real radio in your hand” -- Cyril

“The best thing about it is having different playlists; one for my morning commute, another for my lunch hour and another for heading home" -- Jerry

Ads forcing Google Play to open to download a random game Just today the app has started opening the Google Play Store whenever one of their ads pop up in the lower bar. Dropping this down from 5 stars to 2 stars.

Former 5 Star App - please fix it Stitcher remains an essential app for me, but for the past few months it has turned into a laggy, unreliable experience. Some days it works fine, but more often than not it freezes or crashes completely, which means rebooting my phone which only sometimes solves the issue. I'm hopeful for an update that addresses these issues soon and returns the app to its former glory.

Off line mode It doesn't automatically download my favorite shows like i think it says it does. It downloads automatically once a week, but i have new episodes daily which means that i am DL over data instead of Wifi

Used to be 5 star First I'd like to say I used to love this app it was fantastic but for the last 1-2 months it doesn't want to launch takes several attempts to get it to work it's seriously frustrating

Forever grateful!

Frustrating launch time So this app has started to take forever to launch. First I stare at a black screen for 10 sec, then I wait for the headlines to load (no matter that I don't listen to them), then playlist podcasts visuals show up, then I get a message that my favorite are playing on startup ( eventually.. ) and then finally my favorite start playing. I swear it's a full minute from launch to when I actually hear anything. It didn't used to be like this..

Today's update stopped me from deleting the app. Glad to see that they fixed the issue fairly quickly. Went down to 4 stars because it seems to have an issue when playing offline and there's no data connection connection loading ads. Sometimes causing crashing.

Great in design but total nightmare to use All my favorite podcasts produce on stitcher but this app keeps crashing every time I open it. I literally prefer to go to my shows official website and just listening to it there..

I use it for all my podcast needs. Love it. I love this app and use it all the time. The only downside is that I like to listen while doing other things on my phone and sometimes the app crashes. When I go back to continue my podcast the app starts it at the last time I manually paused the audio, not at the point it crashed, leaving me hunting through trying to find where I was. I don't know if this is something that can be fixed it on your end, or if it's just an unavoidable fact of the crashing app. Other than that, I have no complaints.

Same frustrations as everyone else In the last couple of months i have been having the same issues as many who have reviewed this app lately. The app is slow to start up, respond , and often crashes on me. I went back to beyond pod because of my frustrations. That being said- I redownloaded Stitcher because I am not a fan of the beyond pod interface. Stitcher is much better. I am trying again but if it is not any better will have to wait for the next update before I will use it again.

Incredibly long launch time I used to rate this 5-star, since I love the app. But over time, the platform has become both more unstable, with endless load times. There appears to be no reason for this.

I've had this app for a while; I loved it, now, not so much. It's become slow to load and unresponsive at times. Everything else is awesome, tons of content available for free and lots of features. I suggest the app for content but not for its ability to function quickly and effectively.

Bad behavior I have been using Stitched since I got my LG G3 in October 2014. It had been great and made me miss iTunes less after two years. Now, I am pining for iTunes. The app is now incredibly slow to load...if it loads at all. It stalls and crashes and if I pause (which I have to do often because I answer phones at my desk at work), it will start me back at a different point in the episode. The last update didn't help. I still like it for accessing the podcasts I like, but Stitcher has to do better.

Great service, decent app I love Stitcher's service. It's the best alternative to iTunes I know of. But the Android app just isn't quite up to par. No variable speed, slow loading and launching, and it doesn't always track which episodes you've listen to. Once they fix those things, I'll give it a 5 star rating!

Working Like a Charm Again. Working Great Now... Today's update corrected the hiccup of the app auto playing after being paused. I attempted some other developer recommend and user highly rated podcast app aggregates. Most of them did not seamlessly capture all of my shows. The other apps collected shows which were video versions only at times. That took up a lot of space, and was not car friendly. Whereas, those same shows, when collected by Stitcher app, returned as audio podcasts - my preferred commuter and workplace enjoyment option. I missed my clean and easy Stitcher, having run through 5 or 6 other apps, and trying each one for about a week or so. I am back on board with Stitcher; listener and proud, user since 2001 and beyond :-)

Use it daily, has stopped working properly Used for years as primary podcast app, now it freezes, stops, and never works normally anymore on my Galaxy S5. About to get an iPhone just for iTunes so I don't have to deal with this anymore...

I have to change my rating again I'm sorry, but apparently the update that claimed to have solved the slow startup, crashing, slow download issues was not a long-term solution. Now my Stitcher is running extremely slow again. Please fix....

Hey There, apologies for the inconvenience, we have just released a fix for this issue. Please update to the new version and write into feedback@stitcher.com if you have any other problems!
Thank you and Happy Listening!
The Stitcher Team

Irritating I rated this app 3 stars due to some issues it was having. It looks as though the Stitcher team has resolved them. The only thing I wish this app had was a drag and drop play list that is easily customizable. It's a great app that has an easy interface. Thanks Stitcher!

Used to be awesome 3rd update. UNINSTALLING after thousands of hours of using it. Just downloaded the latest update and it crashed upon first launch. Used to be great. Is now and has been for some time a piece of crap app regardless of updates. Do not download . I am switching to Beyond Pod app and seeing how that goes. AVOID!

Hey Dave! We have fixed the ad and buffering issues you mentioned with today's release! Please update to the latest version and send us a note at feedback@stitcher.com so we can work through any other problems you may have. Thank you and Happy Listening! -The Stitcher Team

A Google User February 4, 2015

Nearly unusable now I've been using this to listen to my podcasts for a few years now, and while the interface is a bit clunky, the search is lacking, and the ads often block useful buttons, I've been happy with it. However, over the past few months it has become so slow and crashy that I'm looking for a new app with similar functionality. Stitcher often doesn't start, and when it does, simply clicking on something takes up to 10 seconds to respond. It also recently stopped grabbing new podcasts and I need to download them with a web browser and listen to them with Play Music. I have tried clearing the app's cache and even un/re-installing it to no avail. I'm on an AT&T LG G3 so the lagginess is inexcusable as all my other apps are snappy and a pleasure to use. Classic case of feature bloat and poor optimization for a once-fantastic piece of software. It still works, but just barely.

Falling Apart This used to be a great app, my go-to podcast app. Now, you load it and stare at a blank screen for 15 seconds (I'm on an S4). Then it loads the daily news section, whether you like it or not. Then you have to wait while it lags out again to update the news you never listen to and can't opt out of. Then it lags out getting to your personal podcasts, I assume because it's connecting to an ad server. Good luck playing podcasts when you don't have internet service even if you downloaded the podcast already, I assume Stitcher doesn't like that because they can't send ads. Not to mention the occasional random restart of a podcast. I've switched to another service and my podcast is playing in a matter of seconds, I didn't realize how bad I had it until I knew how good it could be Sorry Stitcher, I waited so long and hoped you would fix this mess, but no. Avoid.

Hit or miss First off, let me warn that I have a crappy phone(an LG Optimus Fuel). That being said, I'm having the exact same problem everyone else seems to be having. The content starts to load, but a box usually pops up that states Stitcher is unavailable. Or if it does load the content of the front page, it won't resume the podcast I've last listened to or play a new one. I really love being able to listen to great stories versus the usual annoying stuff on the radio. Please fix this problem Stitcher!

Good content, horrible app This is a nice service that brings together a ton of podcasts. I love the content and it's all free (with ads and promotions, but they gotta make money somehow). What I HATE is the apps performance. Loading freezes the app at random, the UI leaves much to be desired (back sometimes brings you back or out of the app completely. Also at random). The auto download over WiFi is spotty as well. If they can make the user experience better, it'd be 5 stars all the way.

Love it and hate it Glitches continuously stuttering audio. Takes 3 attempts to auto start favs. Slow ui on player controls attempts to trick users into a fumbling thumbs ad click. Yet I still use it everyday. Look forward to raising rating to 5 stars and paying for pro version so they can pay more to developers to fix this darn thing.

Freezes and stops playback while streaming in 4G, crashes almost every time it's launched, slow/nonexistent response to taps. WHAT DID YOU DO TO THIS APP? It is very frustrating, but used to be a flawless service. Using Samsung Galaxy s5 sport on Sprint.

Frustrating load times and crashes Used to work much better. Now this app is extremely slow to load when opening and when exploring podcasts. Constant crashes when trying to navigate the app. On the plus side, downloadable podcasts for listening when out of service or on long drives. Decent selection of shows.

Love this app! I love this app, but recently, it's been lagging, unreliable, and won't download efficiently. I have to download on Wi-Fi so I can listen in my car because signal is so spotty where I live. Please update to fix the Wi-Fi download!

More stable but still buggy I've been listening to Stitcher for a couple of years now, starting with iPhone and now in Android. It was rock solid on the iPhone, but seems half-finished on Android. They have improved it, but work remains to be done. Examples: Repeatedly downloads the same episode. Set to use Wi-Fi for downloads, yet is the top data consumer. Can't tell whether an individual show is available offline, or the whole folder. I use Stitcher, and I even recommend it. But it's still unfinished.

What happened? *Updated* I've used this app for years. The response time has come to a drag on my HTC M8. Takes15 seconds to load and then can take 5-10 seconds to see episodes when switching between podcasts. It's still my go to, but maybe not for long. *Update* As my fellow HTC M8 users know, we recently received our Android Lollipop update. Stitcher is running much more smoothly on Lollipop. It is loading much faster and switching between channels quickly. I'm bumping the rating from two stars back to four.

Hi Ryan,

Slow, unresponsive and buggy Stitcher for Android has been going down hill over the last year. Often times it will freeze, and take a long time to do a simple screen refresh. I am on my last leg with patience, please streamline your code and make it easy and fast!!

Disappointing fall from grace Stitcher used to be arguably my favorite and most used app. Now it's so slow and unresponsive that it's almost unusable. I've tried cutting back on the podcasts I subscribe to and deleted all non-essential apps and memory hogs on my phone (which otherwise is fast as ever), but it hasn't made a difference.

Great way to listen to podcasts offline. I subscribe to several podcasts off-line and find Stitcher to be very useful. It's a great app but can be buggy at times. The latest issue involves daily podcasts that no longer sync on time. For example The Mark Levin show is now running 2 days behind. Why?

Spirit1 is a real, tuned, "over the air" FM radio app. It is NOT a streaming app which requires expensive data plans and drains your battery.

The focus of Spirit is on AOSP ROMs. If you don't know what AOSP is, Spirit is likely not the app for you, and you should stick with the stock FM app. Further details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50954346&postcount=7641

Satisfaction guaranteed or full refund. Cancel any time on request, within 30 days. To cancel, email mikereidis@gmail.com with at least your name, email of purchase, and/or order ID or email receipt.

If you're an average phone user, & don't know what Android "rooting" is, Spirit will likely not offer you much more than your stock FM app. If your phone does not have a stock FM app, it is unlikely that Spirit will work on it.

Spirit is mostly for Android enthusiasts who "root" & "ROM" their phones. But it also works on many stock, "store bought" phones.

! IMPOSSIBLE Devices: ALL Nexus & MANY Samsung & other devices have FM purposely & unfixably disabled in hardware. No app can EVER fix that. Email for refund & explanation of Google's false "compatability" checking. NO FM for GALAXY S4/S5, Note3/Note4, Tab, All US Galaxy S/Note class phones, Motorola flagships, and MANY more

I understand the price may seem high, but this is a niche app with 10,000 hours of work required over 3+ years. How many other "Real FM Radio" apps are on Google Play ? Almost none.

Why ? Because Android FM is extremely difficult. Google doesn't support FM radio and carriers suppress it. Intensive reverse engineering is required. In the over 3 years since Spirit was first created, nobody else has been "crazy" enough to attempt to compete in this niche (OTA radio) within a niche (AOSP ROMs) or without (all phones with usable FM).

Spirit is not a throwaway game app you play for a few days. How many hours will you spend listening to FM radio in the next several years ?

How much can you save on data plans by listening to free, over the air radio versus streaming ?

If you care about app quality, note CNet article "We're not paying enough for apps": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23568502&postcount=2523

I'm one developer and Spirit is my only substantial app and income. I'm trying to do a job Google said they couldn't for lack of developer resources. :)

Your support for Spirit is appreciated.
